Gunjur spanks Brikama to cruise to Super Nawettan quarterfinal

2016 super Nawettan champions Gunjur Sunday
defeated Brikama 1-0 in the all-West Coast Region they played at the Serrekunda
East Mini Stadium to reach the 2018 Gambia Football Federation (GFF) and Simlex
sponsored Super Nawettan zonal football competition quarterfinal.

The South boys came into the game with 2
points following their goalless draw with Brufut and Lamin in their previous
group games. Brikama already secured a point in the quarterfinal after
defeating Lamin and Brufut 2-0 in the previous outings prior to their clash
with Gunjur.

The Sateyba boys dominated in the first
half and created some goal scoring chances but failed to utilize on them. The
South boys who were unable to contain Brikama in the first half created one
goal scoring opportunity but equally failed to capitalize on it, ending the
first half with goalless.

Their efforts yielded dividend in the 57th
minute of the game when winger Mbemba Fatty alias Iniesta notched home the
opener, which eventually proved to be the winner for the 2016 super nawettan
champions Gunjur.

Brikama fought hard for an equalizer and
crafted some goal chances but couldn’t penetrate Gunjur’s solid defence line
thus the game 1-0 in favour of Gunjur, who will now play against Manjai in the
quarterfinal today Tuesday at the Independence Stadium in Bakau at 4.30pm.
